Dresden was genocide! Blood for global hegemony! 123480@blogcritics.org Mon, 28 Feb 2005 14:22:22 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/02/28/083510.php#comment-123408 I'm actually surprised that the Boston Globe managed to at least be positive about that old reactionary Churchill. One would think that in retrospect his policies would look pretty unattractive to the modern liberal.

Yes, Bush could do well to study up on Churchill. 123382@blogcritics.org Mon, 28 Feb 2005 10:00:15 EST
